I thought I would share my first knife with ya'll and see what you think. Hand forged from a 52100 ball bearing. Differentially hardened with elk tine handle, Ipe wood spacer and brass guard and buttcap. Hope you dig her! I sure do!
 
I love it. Do you have photos of the process? It would be interesting to see a few. How did you finish the handle? 1000 grit wet/dry for the brass or higher?? Could you post up a picture of the butt cap? Peened tang? :thumbup: :thumbup: Interesting.
 
Thank you Zemapeli! I do have pictures of most of the process ill put them up when I get by the computer. Everything is hand sanded to 1000 grit then a few seconds with pink scratchless on the buffer. I will be sealing the antler and wood with linseed oil. Not sure what peened tang means? The guard is peened in place and soldered. Thanks for looking.
 
Here's a few of the in progress shots I found as well as a clearer picture of the finished knife. A couple pics out of order but you get the idea.......lol
